Anthony lives in a world of fraternity parties and late nights, while Rose spends her days in art studios surrounded by canvases and quiet. Who knew that one match on Loom would spark a connection neither expected? Rose Lee grew up in a small, creative household where quiet moments and self-expression were valued above all else. From an early age, she found comfort in sketchbooks, paints, and capturing the world around her in art. Thoughtful and introspective, she often sees the world differently than those around her. Anthony Lin grew up in a lively, social family in a mid-sized city. Outgoing, confident, and a little wild on the surface, he is known as someone who can light up a room and make people laugh. When life pulls them in different directions, can their love survive the distance, the time, and the challenge of growing together while apart?

Things are different. Humans are not at the top of the food chain, and life does not have the silver lining that Lily remembers it having when she was a kid. Civilization means living in fear and cowering away from the monsters that march the planet, hoping every night to see another day. But Lily is too fearless for her own good, and it just so happens to be during the night that she is plucked from her life like a flower from the earth. Little does she know that her capturer, whilst being the most bloodcurdling and lethal creature known to life, has a heartbeat regardless of being eternally undead. ✞ [a lesbian vampire love story] [tw: sex, violence, non-descriptive situations of rape]
